Empty nodes have no color. We can make use of this property to
simplify the code emitted by the RB_EMPTY_NODE and RB_CLEAR_NODE
macros. Also, we can get rid of the rb_init_node function which had
been introduced by commit 88d19cf37952a7e1e38b2bf87a00f0e857e63180
to avoid some issue with the empty node's color not being initialized.
I'm not sure what the RB_EMPTY_NODE checks in rb_prev() / rb_next()
are doing there, though. axboe introduced them in commit 10fd48f2376d.
The way I see it, the 'empty node' abstraction is only used by rbtree
users to flag nodes that they haven't inserted in any rbtree, so asking
the predecessor or successor of such nodes doesn't make any sense.
One final rb_init_node() caller was recently added in sysctl code
to implement faster sysctl name lookups. This code doesn't make use
of RB_EMPTY_NODE at all, and from what I could see it only called
rb_init_node() under the mistaken assumption that such initialization
was required before node insertion.
